These are the first pendants I've made. From Left to right.

Pre-ban ivory with ebony segment

last pic is Zebrawood & Ebony

These things are really fun to make, I used richard's (sailing away) chuck which really made it easy and enjoyable.

Thanks for looking.

They are fantastic Joe . I really like the Zebrawood/Ebony one , what is the blue stuff inside the Ebony ? or is the inner ring suspended inside the bigger ring ?

Butch i didn't notice the blue ring when I took the picture. it is actually a reflection off the upper portion of the photo tent. It has a very, very high gloss CA finish that is kinda hard to photograph.
 
Those are really pretty. What's the average diameter?

Thanks Cathy. The Zebrawood & Ebony is the smallest diameter at 1 1/4" it is for my fiance' who is petitte, so should be plenty big enough for her. The rest of them are between 1 1/2" to 1 3/4" in diameter.

The pre-ban Ivory one was made for my son and is 1 5/8" diameter. I started off with a piece a little over 1/2" thick and parted it in half so I had two exact matching pieces. I turned the other one to 1 1/4" diameter so he could give it to his girlfriend. They thought it was pretty cool to have "exact" matching pendants.

Go to the "other things we make" board and you find my mini-how to on Richards chuck and richards post (or search for his user id sailing_away)...

I believe there is also a how to in the library.
